Painting with Perfect Pearls Pigment Powder

Hi all! Kristina here. :)

Today I have a fun card and video for you featuring the Look for the Miracles stamp set from the June card kit. Plus, I’m doing some Perfect Pearls painting.

Perfect Pearls already has a binder in the powder, so all you need is moisture to make it stick to your cardstock. I created a paint by adding water droplets to the powder and mixing it into a paint. It was super easy to paint it onto embossed images since the embossing resists the paint.

I hope you enjoy the video!

Watercoloring with Zig Clean Color Markers

Hi readers! Happy Tuesday! I’m always so happy to welcome back the bubbly and fun Laura Bassen to our blog as a guest! She always sprinkles in fun trivia in her blog along with teaching so be sure to tune in to find out the plural of Ranunculus! The flower that is about as hard to spell as it pronounce! Ha! I love the way she colored the Painted Kindness in ombre, and added a speckle of black and white ink with a paint brush! You may just have to collect all of the Zig Clean Color Markers after watching this!! Be sure to watch the video, and enjoy!

Studio Monday with Nina-Marie: Easy Pastel Watercoloring

Easy Pastel Watercoloring_4

Hello everyone! It’s Nina-Marie here with you today for a brand new Studio Monday! Today I am going to be sharing a easy watercoloring technique that will help you achieve pastel color effects and tones to your coloring.

Light and airy pastels can sometimes be hard to achieve, especially depending upon how intense of a pigment you are using. For my watercoloring, I’ve used the Prima Decadent Pies watercolor tin. However, keep in mind that any watercolor medium you have or prefer would work for this technique!

The stamp sets I’ve used for this card are the Avery Elle Woodland Wonders and Sentimental sets. I love the whimsical style of these animals! And I also really love how the set includes a pair of trees that I can help create cute little scenes for the critters.
